Preheat your oven to 400°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a stand mixer, cream cold butter with brown and granulated sugars until light and fluffy.
Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each.
In a separate bowl, whisk together cake flour, all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually combine dry ingredients with the wet mixture until just mixed.
Fold in chocolate chips and walnuts evenly.
Divide dough into nine equal portions (about six ounces each) and shape into balls without flattening.
